probably this function; it's apparently possible to get 2 strings with a
hard-coded space in the middle, in your case sSetRefName is empty:
OUString SwGetRefField::GetFieldName() const
{
const OUString aName = GetTyp()->GetName();
if ( !aName.isEmpty() || !sSetRefName.isEmpty() )
{
return aName + " " + sSetRefName;
}
return Expand();
}

yes.

they are quite different internally; bookmarks are inserted via
Insert->Bookmark, they have a name and can span multiple paragraph
breaks; reference marks are inserted via Insert->Cross-reference->Set
Reference, and it's restricted to inside one paragraph.

this is the "field-marks" horror, which is an attempt to preserve
Word-like fields in Writer.

this is a bug in the horrible field-marks code - this implementation
detail should never be visible in the API.

use XServiceInfo::getSupportedServiceNames() - this should return
text.TextContent, plus 2 spellings of the specific field service name
(there was some problem with those names and the "old" name is still
returned here for compatibility).
